Dr. Karamoozian, born on November 29, 1981, holds an MSc in Mechanical Engineering with a focus on reliability engineering in mechanical systems from Tehran Polytechnic (Amirkabir University of Technology). He earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Nanjing University of Science and Technology, followed by a Postdoctoral fellowship in Automotive and Traffic Engineering from Jiangsu University. With a decade of experience in research, development, teaching, administration, and management, Dr. Karamoozian has held various positions, including serving as a Visiting Researcher at Wayne State University. His contributions include steering and braking assistance projects using High-Definition (HD) maps, collaborative efforts with Wayne State University on automotive supply chain risks under COVID-19, and the probabilistic development of a slip-based active braking controller for motor-driven vehicles (ABS/TCS). Dr. Karamoozian has developed novel vehicle safety parts, scientific safety control algorithms, and risk assessment algorithms, resulting in the granting of five international AusPat patents.
Recognized for his academic excellence, Dr. Karamoozian received two full study scholarships, won the Elite International Students Scholarship award of China, and earned over seven best publication awards at Nanjing and Jiangsu Universities. He has published more than 25 papers in national and international refereed journals and serves on the editorial boards of esteemed journals such as Journal of Sandwich Structures & Materials, Materials & Design, and IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics. He is also a guest editor for MDPI Sustainability and the Journal of Energies. Dr. Karamoozian is an IEEE Member, SAE International Member, and the inventor and founder of the Pareto Nonlinear Active Braking Controller (PNAB controller). His research interests span dynamics and vibration control of continuous structures and systems, machine learning, dynamics and controls in autonomous robots (with applications to autonomous driving and Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems - ADAS), High-Definition (HD) maps, GIS, remote sensing, computer vision, and LiDAR systems. Additionally, he specializes in reliability analysis of mechanical systems, with a particular focus on active steering and braking assistance.
